  1. Jealous that I have no life

    I agree with the PP. I get how you feel but you struck gold with a man like that. Even if you got your way, chances are he'd grow resentful of never having time to himself - and rightfully so. That...
  2. Questions about Nursing Care plans?

    You are going to drive yourself insane. You are essentially trying to teach yourself nursing curriculum. It doesn't work that way. You are just scratching the surface with your questions here. There...
  3. Is it time to change programs

    That's an interesting point HouTX; I hadn't considered that. Do you have any other tips to
  4. Is it time to change programs

    I agree with the PP. I'd also like to add that the type of professor you have on the floor with you makes a huge difference. I had 2 professors like that - the ones who only mention everything you're...
  5. remembering lab values r.o

    I don't have any cute tricks to remember but I memorized mine by putting them all on a hot pink index card and keeping it in my car. It catches my attention all the time when I'm sitting in traffic or...
  6. PBSC Spring 2014 Applicants

    The quickest way to find out is to check Panther Web where they show your point total. They post there
  7. How do I change my outlook?

    I feel you. I heard the same thing in the beginning and was shocked. I absolutely hate that mentality and I don't agree with at all if you're planning on advancing your education. Many of the future...
  8. You won't believe.....

    You were rude. She said something stupid. Put it to
  9. PBSC Spring 2014 Applicants

    It may get better because there is a new director now. This semester wasn't nearly as bad as the first 3. As far as nursing itself, it was a big reality check being at all the different hospitals and...
  10. PBSC Spring 2014 Applicants

    My best advice is to get your head in the right place. The program is pure insanity. It's nothing like pre-reqs. I'm not saying any of this to scare you, but I think the hardest thing for everyone was...
  11. PBSC Spring 2014 Applicants

    Hi ladies, I graduate the FT LW program in December, so I'd be happy to answer any questions you have. I saw all your posts and totally relate to what you're going through. It can be so hard to get...
  12. NICU Cover Letter Critique

    I think it's a bit lengthy. I'd condense it down. You want to hit only the highlights. Remember how many applicants they have to go through. You want to get your point across, not lost in a sea of...
  13. Why not become a Nurse Practitioner? It's just an extension of the educational track you're on now, rather than starting over. You can still have your own practice and its only a few additional years...
  14. Having one of those days (second hospital clinical day)...

    Awwww, big hugs babe :) I know exactly how you feel. I almost didn't go to nursing school because I couldn't even look when they drew my blood. Watching my first PICC line insertion, my knees were...
  15. GUM! Can you chew it on shift?

    I feel the same way about chewing gum as I do tattoos and piercings. There will always be a group who classifies these as "unprofessional." The truth is that who you are as a person and nurse speaks...
  16. I have to agree with the previous posters. Even if it didn't interfere with getting hired, would you really want your employer 'having that on you' so to speak? People talk and chances are it would...
  17. Help me with this situation

    Have you considered that she might be intimated by you? Ive had run-ins with a few girls/women like this and I drove myself crazy trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. I started sharing with...
